We set off to follow the money. The story begins around 5,000 years ago with in-kind payments, barter, hacksilver and Dudu, the government official who keeps his eye on everything. The next stops are a tally stick and Roman money, followed by the counting house from the Renaissance. Afterward, we look at mechanical cash registers and then move on to automated teller machines.

During the tour, we will also see money. Unfortunately, it is only play money. We have a cash box filled with German marks, euros and Roman money. And at the end of the tour, you may even find a chest full of gold coins just like Pippi Longstocking…
